The Crisis
In the heat of battle, Indrajit — Ravana's son — struck Lakshmana with the Shakti weapon. Lakshmana fell, unconscious, near death. The physician Sushena said he could be revived only by the Sanjeevani herb from Mount Dronagiri in the Himalayas — but it had to arrive by dawn.
Hanuman flew.
The Mountain
He crossed the ocean. He found the Himalayas. He found the mountain.
He searched for the Sanjeevani. It was dark. The herbs were many. He could not identify which was the right one.
Hanuman did not go back. He did not wait. He did not ask for help.
He dug his hands under the entire mountain and lifted it.
He flew back across the ocean, carrying a Himalayan peak in his hands, the herbs visible on its slopes.
The Healing
Sushena identified the herb, prepared it, administered it. Lakshmana revived, rose, and re-entered the battle.
Rama embraced Hanuman with tears in his eyes. He said: "What you have done for me today, I could not repay in a thousand lifetimes."
Hanuman set the mountain back where he had found it, perfectly placed.
